Somebody sent me a message in relation to my thyroid issue. I can't really add to what I previously wrote.
I know that several doctors said I had IBS and I knew I didn't. The last doctor I went to said we'll check your thyroid. I had a blood test and the result came back borderline. I don't know what the reading was.
I started taking the lowest dose of thyroxine which worked a little. The dose was increased to 75 mg and I've had no 'IBS' symptoms since.
Since then I was told about seamoss an OTC medication. It can not be taken with thyroxine. I exchanged thyroxine with seamoss and I still have no 'IBS' symptoms.
There is plenty of information about seamoss and it's benefits online. I buy mine from amazon.
In my case I saw the IBS diagnosis s a term used when the nhs do not do all the test required due to funding. It's sort of like saying , "you've got a virus". This type of diagnosis explains nothing and neither does an IBS diagnosis.
Sorry to the person who sent me an email which I deleted in error.

Have you been to a Thyroid Specialist.? I started in 2005 with a high thyroid and I lost weight and was shaky, I ended upin hospital.
I forget the name of the drug to bring mu thyroid down bu it went down and never raised.
My thyroid stayed low and I was started on 50mic , then 75 and then 100 and now I am on 125mcg whichis a maintainance dose.
This is just an opinion - Of course you can't take "seamoss" with Throxine and both have a lot of iodine.
So if yiu was taking 75mcg and no "IBS" reported, Why would you pay for "seamoss" .
Thyroid can change and best to be momitered - When on Thyroxine you are moniteredevery 6months or so - and that is the safest way IMO - Who moniters your T4 levels with "sea moss" ?
High or low Thyroid should be monitered as values can change frequenty.
I started to write an independent response which somehow got deleted. The short response is:No I have never seen a thyroid specialist, nor has it been monitored. If there are any changes I would discuss with the GP.
I am a believer in the gut being the 'second brain' and what we put into our bodies will have a physiological and psychological impact.
Our bodies need 102 vitamins daily and sea moss has 92bl of these minerals, so has a positive impact on a number of physical health issues.
All diseases start with nutrition deficiency if you can find natural ways to correct them through proper testing all the better . Doctors know nothing about this and will just push more poison into us causing more sickness in order to create wealth for pharmaceutical companies .
I totally agree with you. In the past I was diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia which I didn't have, IBS which I didn't have, son diagnosed with a virus and died. I can go on and on into a lot more where the medical professionals have got it wrong and yes there are definitely monetary benefits for all the prescriptions they give out.In the past I had cancer and was prescribed tamoxifen following the treatment. It didn't agree with me so they offered me something else, can't remember what it was. What ever it was they said a side effect was that it would cause bone wasting but not to worry as they would check my bone density on a regular basis!!!
Naturally I refused but voiced my concerns and was told that they don't know if the medication for 5 years following cancer treatment makes any difference. This was said by the cancer consultant, go figure!
I take my health seriously. I way up all the options and felt aggrieved at a previous comment that was made following a post that I had written. So a big thank you for your support.
Your welcome I have been severely injured through being given multiple rounds of antibiotics that was having adverse reactions to like many thousands of other people. Most people don’t connect the dots it’s no wonder why half the country is of sick. It’s all coming out now the damage vaccines have had on people anxiety/depression chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions and god knows what else. Do you suffer weight loss by any chance with the thyroid issues? And do you feel better with the sea moss
I agree. I think they should have lessons in schools relating to the gut brain connection and healthy eating. After all you wouldn't put substandard fuel in a car!No I bloated and looked 8 months pregnant. I couldn't see my toes. It was painfull. I lost my appetite and couldn't have been eating more than 600 calories daily (don't usually calorie count) yet I was gaining weight and also had alternating constipation and diarrhea.
For me the sea moss definitely works. If it hadn't worked I would have gone back on the tamoxifen or a lower dose of tamoxifen and sea moss.
The sea moss also works with my emphasemia as I no longer get flem. My hair looks healthier and is growing faster. My nails are stronger and that's good for a person who has always had brittle nails. There are probably other benefits that are outside of my awareness.
Dangerous info, to others reading do not be misled into treating yourself.of course everyone is entitled to treat oneself but any one with true thyroid issues this is not good advice
I was asked some questions and answered them. I was told about sea moss by a lady with thyroid issues. She had her thyroid taken out and has regular screening. She started to take sea moss whist consulting with her consultant and was able to reduce the amount of thyroxine she takes.
Obviously I have a "true hyroid issue" (as well as a more serious conditions) as taking thyroxine stopped my thyroid issue symptoms.
There was no intention to misslead anyone and I made no suggestions that anyone should do what I fo. I was not giving advice, I was answering questions put to me.
